The diastereoselective catalytic Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction was made by the method described by Jingjun Yin et. al. J. Org. Chem. 2006, 71, 840-843. (S)-tert-butyl 1-(2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxin-6-yl)-1-oxopropan-2-ylcarbamate (I2b) (3.76 g, 12.23 mmol), aluminium isopropoxide (0.5 g, 2.45 mmol) and 2-propanol (12 mL, 157.75 mmol) in toluene (22 mL) was stirred at +50° C. under argon for 16 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into 1M HCl (150 mL), the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (250 mL). The organic phase was washed with water (2×50 mL) and brine (100 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by flash-chromatography on silica using EtOAc:Hexane (1:2) as eluent. Fractions containing product was combined. Solvent was removed by evaporation to give the desired product as a colourless solid. Yield 3.19 g (84%)
